As far as rewards go, I made a promise to myself years back (after a bit of youthful trouble) that in my new life I would learn something new everyday and have been doing so for 20 years now. The new things that I learn everyday from using HC, SC and now Rev have been part of my rewards. Also, some of the opportunities that this knowledge has opened up for me have been my rewards. Lastly, the monetary rewards although small definitely make it worthwhile.

Maybe it is the possibility of future rewards that keeps me riding this wave. I love the learning part and hope I always will.


Hi Tom,

I know the foregoing comment is mean to be supportive, but I'm afraid it has the opposite effect. Learning something new every day, at minimum, is a value we both share. On the other hand, if I learn something new today, something new about how to program a computer is going to be low on my priority list. I'd prefer to learn something new about literature, art, music, history, current affairs, science, my profession, a new physical recreation, a hiking trip, making a new friend, etc. Constantly climbing the computer learning curve interferes with pursuing those interests I value more.

Cheers,

Tim
